Agents

An Agent is the worker process that handles a call session end-to-end.

It is responsible for:

• Listening to audio (STT)
• Thinking (LLM)
• Speaking (TTS)
• Managing behavior like greetings, interruptions, and voice activity settings

SIPHON agents can be configured in two ways:

• Static defaults: pass llm, stt, tts, and instructions directly when creating Agent(...).
• Dynamic (per-call) config: run the worker with minimal defaults and inject agent_config at call time (inbound dispatch metadata / outbound call metadata).
